How to Make a Chalkboard Wine Glass

DIY Chalkboard Wine Glasses

Chalkboard paint adds a splash of color and will help guests keep track of their drinks. For this project, you'll need: wine glasses, chalkboard paint, bucket or small bowl for the paint, chalk sticks, rubbing alcohol and paper towels or a clean cloth.

Materials Needed

Prep Work

Remove any labels or stickers from the foot of each wine glass, then clean the area that will be covered with paint using a clean cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol. Pour chalkboard paint into a bucket or bowl deep enough that the glass bottom can be fully submerged.

Pour Paint Into Bucket

Pour the chalkboard paint into a bucket or bowl deep enough that the glass bottom can be fully submerged. TIP: Clean the base of each glass by wiping them with a clean cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol.

Dip Glasses

Dip the base of the wine glass into the paint (Image 1). Lift glass out of the paint and hold over the bowl to allow excess paint to drip back into the container (Image 2). Set the glass on a protected surface to allow the paint to dry overnight (Image 3).
